Underwater vehicle

REV Ocean’s 6000 m rated vehicle is an ideal for expanding our knowledge of the deep ocean, placing 98% of the world’s oceans within range of REV Ocean’s researchers.

Kystdesign 6000m Rated ROV

The manipulators are equipped with delicate pincers for taking targeted samples, and the unit contains 7 high-definition cameras. The ROV has a wide range of payload options to carry utility equipment: skid front drawer with dual sampling chambers, pushcores and bladecores, slurp sampler with multi-chamber container, gas sampler, niskin bottles, geochemical and oceanographic sensors and a multibeam system for cm-scale imaging of the ocean floor.

The ROV is deployed through a moonpool and is equipped with a large tether management system (TMS), which has fixed and pan/tilt cameras and lights for observing the ROV operations. Additional sensors can be mounted to the TMS.

Triton 7500/3 Manned Submersible

Triton 7500/3 Manned Submersible

The Triton 7500/3 is a spacious, 3-passenger submarine. It achieves its remarkable 2,286 m diving depth by utilizing a pressure hull thickness of 300 mm and through the use of certified, aircraft-grade materials, lithium phosphate battery technology, and pressure-balanced-oil-filled subsystems. The fully transparent, acrylic pressure hull creates the potential for more excitement, new adventures and even greater versatility

Subsea Navigation Systems

HiPAP 502 (21-32kHz) High Precision Acoustic Positioning System: Kongsberg HiPAP system for tracking subsea transponders fitted to various underwater assets. This Super Short Basel Line System (SSBL) consists of a pole mounted transducer that is extended several meters below the ship’s hull and transponders attached to subsea equipment (e.g. ROV, AUV, Triton submersible). This system enables us to track the vehicle during a dive and geographically tag discoveries, samples and vehicle operations.
